On Tuesday, October 18, members of the Town of Essex Council and Administration celebrated the completion of the Harrow Streetscape Project!
This project represents a multi-million dollar investment of infrastructure improvements and beautification in the urban core of Harrow. Many new features were implemented, including AODA-compliant sidewalks and crosswalks, bicycle racks to encourage active transportation, benches, landscape treatments, new street lighting, and much more. In addition, there are many improvements that have been made to the overall infrastructure, including the renewal of storm sewer and watermain infrastructure, ensuring long-term sustainability.
A special thank you to the Canada Community-Building Fund and the RED grant for their contributions in helping to fund this project, as well as ERCA and the TransCanada Trail for their partnership in completing the Greenway crossing on Queen Street that includes a rest stop, landscaping, and bush-button pedestrian crossing.
Check out this great video that showcases the entire project from beginning to end!
